Instead of tossing it to the curb, haul the undecorated evergreens to a City Sanitation Convenience Center, Domino Lane and Umbria Street, State Road and Ashburner Street or 63rd Street and West Passyunk Avenue, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays to Saturdays or drop it off at one of three area tree-cycling events Jan. 7. The City will not recycle trees set out with trash.

East Passyunk Crossing Civic Association and Town Watch, Lower Moyamensing Civic Association, Newbold Neighbors Association and Passyunk Square Civic Association will accept tannenbaums 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 7 at Columbus Square Park, 13th and Reed streets.

Meanwhile Queen Village Neighbors Association, South Street Headhouse District, Whole Foods, South Street Police Mini-Station, and greenlimbs will hold their tree-cycling event 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 7 at Whole Foods, 929 South St.

Lower Moyamensing, Marconi Area Residents Civic Organization, Newbold Civic Association and South Philadelphia Communities Civic Association also will collect timbers 1 to 4 p.m. Jan. 7 at Marconi Plaza, Broad Street and Oregon Avenue.

A $5 donation is requested at all events to defray costs of turning the lumber into wood chips.
